Clutch is slipping
was pissing water out the back of the block i believe it wasnt fixed when kyle sold it so could have been run on low water at some point
Electrical issues
Rear arch had previously rotten and patched up but still rotten
various seat belt mounting points were rusted
Beam had been lowered by some who is known for smashing the arms off
most things were flung together too quickly and no real time taken as those who did it never got anything in return
pump wise i suspect its not even a 11mm pump the guy claimed to have shimmed the gov and hadnt
Cambelt had been reused of the old engine on this one as we all know a big no no
car was often driven on very low fuel
the car seemed to suffer from moisture in the sills which was causing lower seat belts harneses to rust.
Main thing car was on a bent ticket according to some who know him
most issues id told kyle about but most never got sorted kyle just wanted a car to look good not be full proof. which is a shame as he had all the right ambitions just lacked motivation at times to sort real problems.
in the end according to some he swopped it for the golf as he was running out of people who would fix it for nothing
Whats wrong with driving it on low fuel?
